To the long list of critics of England's tactics in their Fifa World Cup semi-final defeat by Argentina can now be added Donald Trump.
The US president on Friday took a gentle swipe at head coach Thomas Tuchel's decision to adopt defensive tactics after England took the lead against Argentina on Wednesday.
Speaking at a reception in New York alongside Fifa president Gianni Infantino, Trump mentioned England captain Harry Kane, with whom he shared a round of golf in Florida 18 months ago.
"You have a great player in England, who I played golf with, Harry," Trump said. "They perhaps made a mistake when they made him a defensive player. What do I know about soccer?" Trump added.
